Minimally invasive surgery

Sometimes, minimally invasive surgery can reduce recovery time and lessen the risk of infection. At Novant Health Salem Surgical Associates, our providers make every effort to use these advanced technologies to benefit our patients whenever possible.

The da Vinci Surgical System is one of the most state-of-the-art technologies available. At Novant Health Salem Surgical Associates, many of our general surgeons are trained on this system. da Vinci Surgery is an alternative to traditional and other laparoscopic surgeries. Your surgeon uses robotic instruments to perform both simple and complicated procedures with only minimal incisions. To learn more about the da Vinci Surgical System, please click here.

Minimally invasive surgery is not an option for every patient. If there is a minimally invasive procedure for which you would be a candidate, that option will be discussed with you along with traditional surgery options. If you have questions about minimally invasive surgery, please ask at your appointment or call one of our offices.
